This educational website does a great job with it's analog and digital clock.  You can change the clock to real time.  You can roll a dice to get a random time on the clock.  You can actually change the mode and use the clock's hands to demonstrate angles and fractions.  The clock's style and color can also be changed. You can also change the style of the tick marks that go around the clock which makes it easier for students to view, when you are demonstrating different times.  

This website provides great student whiteboard activities for elapsed time.  There are two clocks that are completely changeable so that you can ask students what the elapsed time is.  I use the dice frequently because it provides completely random times.  You can hide one clock  and then give how many hours before or after that specific time and now your students have to either draw the time they calculate it to be and then unhide the clock so students can verify their calculations.  

In this science video, Veritasium does a fantastic job interviewing the public to see if they know what it actually means to be a solid, liquid or a gas.  It is fun to watch people try to remember from their schooling what the scientific answer is.  This would be a great video to show when introducing 3 of the 4 states of matter to your chemistry or physical science students.

I use this digital geoboard with my 3rd grade students when teaching shapes.  I have students do their best to create, 2d shapes like triangles, right triangles, pentagon, hexagon, octogon, kite, square, rhombus, and rectangles.  When we are done with learning the shapes, students create their own image on the geoboard.  There are many variables that students and teachers can use when creating their shapes like, rubber band color, size of geoboard, add grid, fill in each shape to count area and perimeter, and add text.  Once finished you cna click the share button to gen

After teaching what suffixes are, use this suffix bingo game to review. There are 31 pages. One is a call sheet and the other 30 are unique bingo cards. Call off the definition and students will mark off the word with a prefix.

You can also purchase the prefix bingo game.

This prefix Bingo game can be played in two ways. First, by giving a clue such as "to apply again" and then students will place their bingo chip over the answer "reapply." It can also be played in reverse as I have included a whole new set of cards if that is how you would like to play it. In this case, the teacher would call off "reapply" and the students would search for "to apply again." There are 30 completely different cards for each method of playing. Also included is the call sheet with checkboxes to keep track of what was called or not.

In this activity students are going to find a small rock, decide what rock type it is, weight it, place it in a tumbler and then over a two week period observe it to see how much mass a rock can lose if it went through a 24 hour a day process of bouncing around other rocks. Students will get a first-hand look at the power behind water and abrasion. Students will make a statement of conclusion and calculate the rate of mass decrease.

A third-grade worksheet designed to reinforce rounding numbers to the nearest 10 and nearest 100.  It included 3 word problems, 4 questions using a number line, and a mix of rounding to 10s and 100s.

This is a worksheet I use with my students when they are reading in the scholastic news.  It is designed to reinforce some of the reading standards that they need to know.
